The legendary Jade Gourd and Muddy Wine Glass are exotic treasures capable of enhancing the grade of Spiritual Essence.
Even the most ordinary Spiritual Essence can have its spirit level increased by sixty to seventy percent when placed in the Jade Gourd.
You must know that if superior Spiritual Liquid is placed inside, it can certainly yield even more precious Spiritual Liquid, aiding martial artists in breaking through their cultivation.
In an instant, the surrounding martial artists rushed toward the Stone Pavilion, all wanting to seize the Jade Gourd and Muddy Wine Glass.
However, as their bodies charged off the section of bluestone-paved stairs and entered the path to the Stone Pavilion, the pressure they endured instantly increased, causing their speed to plummet, moving forward slowly like mortals.
Martial artists like Yun Kaige, Shi An, Liu Yong, and Wang Shuo, with higher cultivation, could still maintain their running speed.
The amplification of Spiritual Liquid by the Jade Gourd and Muddy Wine Glass has a limit, and for beings like them, it has little effect, as these two treasures are to increase the concentration of Spiritual Liquid to aid martial artists in advancing their cultivation, which with their talent, they clearly don't need much.
Nevertheless, even if these two treasures are useless to them, if they obtain them, they could trade for other needed treasures with others, or sell them off.
So, faced with such treasures, even Yun Kaige and others couldn't help but make a move to compete for them.
At this moment, Lin Chen could almost ignore the pressure on him; it had no effect on him at all.
After all, this little pressure was entirely negligible compared to the pressure he endured while refining his body in that unfamiliar world.
However, to avoid drawing too much attention, Lin Chen controlled his speed to be similar to Zi Ling and others when heading towards the Stone Pavilion. Read full story at novel✶fire.net
After all, Lin Chen didn't want to reveal his strength too early and excessively, letting others know his trump card.
Anyway, there are only four treasures up ahead, and the Muddy Wine Glass must be used with the Jade Gourd to be valuable; even if he is the first to rush to the Stone Pavilion, he might not necessarily obtain these two treasures.
So Lin Chen was not in a hurry to rush in; he let others test the waters first.
After all, who knows if there are hidden dangers in the Stone Pavilion, if crisis strikes upon obtaining the treasures, wouldn't it be reckless and foolish to be the first?
Lin Chen was not foolish, so he chose to let others explore the situation first.
Simultaneously, Lin Chen sent a message to Zi Ling, telling her not to desperately try to be the first to snatch the treasure and let others try it first.
Upon hearing Lin Chen's message, Zi Ling immediately understood Lin Chen's intentions and nodded in agreement.
The first to reach the Stone Pavilion was Liu Yong, as his cultivation was the highest among those present.
Rushing to the Stone Pavilion, Liu Yong directly reached out to touch the Jade Gourd and Muddy Wine Glass, but then an extremely powerful spiritual power fluctuation emanated from the Stone Pavilion, sweeping over everyone.
Upon seeing this energy wave, Liu Yong instantly dazed and froze in place.
When he came back to his senses, he found himself in an unfamiliar place, the previous Stone Pavilion had disappeared, and the people behind him were gone as well; a vast lake stretched out before him, and he was standing on a reef in the middle of the lake.
Staring at the vast lake, Liu Yong immediately understood that he had fallen into an illusion, and everything before him was an illusion, not reality.
Realizing he was trapped in an illusion, Liu Yong's face turned grim, as illusions are the hardest to dissolve; compared to other restrictions, illusion restrictions are the most complex unless one is adept with formations.
After all, ordinary restrictions can still be broken with sheer martial force, but the illusion restriction present could not; he had to find the formation eye.
Many times, some martial artists fall into a difficult and terrifying illusionary realm, no matter how they try to break through, they remain trapped, sometimes even thinking they have escaped, only to realize they are still in the illusion, ultimately breaking down.
Some martial artists exhaust their entire lives trying to break the illusion, only to die and disappear, having spent their lifespan in an illusionary realm.
Illusion restrictions are the most terrifying among restrictions.
However, setting up such restrictions is a great challenge for the Array Master, as creating a powerful illusion restriction requires the Array Master to have a strong divine soul and be highly accomplished in illusion restrictions.
Otherwise, ordinary illusion restrictions can be broken easily by martial artists simply releasing their spiritual sense and probing with their divine soul to quickly find the way to break the restriction.
As Liu Yong released his divine soul, extending it around, he could only sense an endless expanse of water, as if there were no end, connoting the strength of the illusion restriction before him.
Apart from Liu Yong, Zi Ling, Yun Kaige, Yun Feiyang, Shi An, Wang Shuo, and others were also caught in the illusion.
However, each person was in a different illusionary realm; even though their bodies were not far away, they could not sense each other's presence.
Among everyone, only Lin Chen remained clear-headed, not falling into the illusion.
In fact, when the peculiar energy in the Stone Pavilion spread, Lin Chen briefly fell into the illusion, but he immediately activated the Abyssal Eye, breaking it in an instant.
In front of the Abyssal Eye, all illusions were revealing.
While trapped in the illusion, Lin Chen used spiritual formation methods to locate the formation eye, but breaking the illusion required considerable effort; with his spiritual formation methods, it was too difficult.
Thus, Lin Chen was thankful for the Abyssal Eye, which made everything simpler.
After all, the Abyssal Eye is the nemesis of illusions.
After breaking the illusion, Lin Chen found that others were still trapped in the illusion and would find it difficult to break out shortly.
So, Lin Chen cautiously approached the Stone Pavilion, but did not enter, as even though Liu Yong had triggered the illusion restriction, Lin Chen still felt uneasy, fearing there were other hidden dangers in the Stone Pavilion.
Thus, Lin Chen raised his hand to summon several flying swords, controlling them to reach out for the Jade Gourd and Muddy Wine Glass to lift them up.
